SCTM#123-6-13 The proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this department, as well as the records available to me, it is my recommendation that the proposed action is INCONSISTENT with the denoted following Policy Standards and therefore is INCONSISTENT with the LWRP. The proposed action is located in an AE Elevation 8 flood zone. 4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards. The following management measures to minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards are suggested: Move existing development and structures as far away from flooding and erosion hazards as practical. Maintaining existing development and structures in hazard areas may be warranted for: structures which functionally require a location on the coast or in coastal waters. water-dependent uses which cannot avoid exposure to hazards. sites in areas with extensive public investment, public infrastructure, or major public facilities. sites where relocation of an existing structure is not practical. The proposed use is residential and does not meet the required criteria above and is not a "water dependent use". Due to the depth of the lot {630.87')~ there is ability to site the residential structure further away from the flooding hazards~ maximize the distance from the "hazard area" and minimize the potential of future structural loss.
